Blizzard Entertainment and the World of Warcraft development team are ready to unleash the hounds of information for the recently announced Mists of Pandaria expansion. In a full suite of articles about Pandaria, we give you a closer look at some of the new features that will be included. Check it out before leaving your comments.

During my time at Blizzard’s HQ in Irvine, California I was treated to quite a metric ton of info when it comes to World of Wacraft’s next expansion: Mists of Pandaria. In the first part of our preview today we gave you a look into the mind of Blizzard and why they think Pandaria is the right place to bring back the war between the Horde and Alliance. In this second part, we’ll dive into the new Battlegrounds, the new dungeons, the Pet Battle system, the Monk, the new Talents, scenarios and Challenge Mode dungeons. In short, we’ll briefly cover all we learned about these new systems coming to Azeroth hopefully later in 2012.

If they learned to take it off of the Cataclysm rails, it will be an improvement for WoW. It will be weird, though, doing the rails from 78-83ish and then going to a more open world, if they do that.

I played this game for two years and I am bored with where it is now, but I still have fond memories of BC times. To be honest, I miss being able to just walk around and explore in a themepark. SWTOR has disappointed me so far in that aspect, so I can't rule out going back to check out Mists, depending of course on their price point and what else is out to play at that time.

I am one of those who are "scared of the pared down talent system". I left WOW a month after Cata was released mainly because of the talent changes. I loved WOW through WOTK but going back, even on a free low level toon, is painful - so much has changed for the worse. I was hoping that Blizz would see the mistake they made with Cata but it is evident now, from Ghostcrawlers comments, that they do not believe that they made a mistake. My opinion is that all these changes are geared to make WOW playable on consoles or free to play.
